Convey to your comrades my thanks for
/ this demonstration, which has afforded me
such great qualification. 1t has given me
great pleasure to hear the views prevalent in
! the universities, which SO greatly contributed
| to the Joyful issue of the last elections. The
| dissolution of the Reichstag was difficult
and disagreeable step to take, but the new
elections which have justified Vt and which
| have given great pleasure were largely due
| to the influence OF the universities of North i
! ern and Southern Germany and TO the spirit
animatipg your ranks. l hope you will re-
| main true TO such views throughout your
later careers.
